Strikes me as a basic snapshot. Nothing really interesting about it. The crop is wonky and cuts out some of the image to a point where it takes away from it. Background stuff is distracting etc. The models look and pose is very uninspired, and while i dig doing candid" images, this one does seem portfolio worthy in my humble opinion. It just seems like a below average snap you took of a friend.

Nice casual, candid pose; good line formed by the model's right arm.

Welcome and keep posting!

Grainy as commented by @gwahle . I used to use a low/mid range 11 million pixel negative scanner and found that this exagerated the grain. With ISO 100 it was noticeable and with ISO 200 it was bad, 400 would have been even worse. Apparently the exagerated grain was caused by "anti-aliasing" (whatever that means!).

I dont see your Iso camera ,but regularly in this shot maybe high iso ,,but you can fix this ,try to use photoshop or lightroom ,if you don have it ,you can get photoshop online express ,or Pixlr ,they have tools to help you in the exposure ,and reedit the image ,it would be good. If you leave this effect try to reduce a bit ,if really you love in this portrait ,i love the compositon of the portrait nice shot

First of all Welcome to Focussion! I like the composition, lighting, feel of this candid looking shot. Looks like she is relaxing in her PJ pants surfing the web. She is a very pretty girl, wonderful long brown hair.

I don't find your xif data to see your camera setting. This shot is very grainy which can be caused by very high iso and or being underposed or both. Unless grainy was the effect you were going for I would recheck my camera setting. If grainy was what you were trying to get then you have done an awesome job.

mweinstock@gwahle @mblum4 hey guys! since you guys are asking about the ISO, it is actually from a film camera! the ISO on the film was 400. thanks for the feedback!

gwahle@mweinstock OK then you can see if the grain is from the orignal image or from the scan into digital. If the orignal is clear then start looking at your scanner settings. I would not expect that type of grain from a 400 iso film. Good luck,with a little more tracking you should be able to figure it out.
